Danish pair continue amazing run

Denmark’s Jonas Rasmussen-Mads Condrads-Petersen continued their amazing run in the VICTOR Korea Open Superseries Premier when they defeated world champions Cai Yun-Fu Haifeng to reach the quarter-finals on Thursday.

The unseeded pair (left), who reached last Sunday’s PROTON Malaysia Open Superseries final, took 54 minutes to defeat the fifth seeds 21-18, 17-21, 21-13 to set-up an intriguing match-up with compatriots and top seeds Mathias Boe-Carsten Mogensen.

Boe-Mogensen reached the last eight by beating Japan’s Naoki Kawamae-Shoji Sato 21-10, 21-10 and will now have a chance to avenge their shock Copenhagen Masters final loss to their team mates last month

South Korean qualifiers Kim Ki Jung-Kim Sa Rang created a big upset when they turned on the style to oust Asian Games champions Markis Kido-Hendra Setiawan 21-18, 21-18 and will now meet sixth seeded compatriots Jung Jae Sung-Lee Yong Dae for a place in the semi-finals.

Women’s doubles world No. 1s Cheng Wen Hsing-Chien Yu Chin didn’t have any problems reaching the last year, brushing aside the challenge of local favourites Eom Hye Won-Kim Ha Na 21-19, 21-14.

They will now play China’s seventh seeds Cheng Shu-Ma Jin who beat Japan’s Matsutomo Misaki-Ayaka  Takahashi 21-12, 21-18.

Ma Jin is also in the quarter-finals of the mixed doubles with Xu Chen after beating British qualifiers Robert Blair-Gabrielle White 21-13, 21-19.
